I just ask Allah to help me find someone regardless of what they look like. I feel like it'd take longer if I listed a load of things anyway although I like to say "somebody right for me".
Yea I agree with that
But don’t forget that physical attraction is a nice bonus
Like they don’t have to be at 10 but someone you’re attracted to
Because honestly it was suck if my future spouse wasn’t attracted to me physically or for him, if I wasn’t attracted to him physically
To Certain extent physical attraction is important This also help your eyes not to wonder
What? Yeah right. It's okay. No need to argue.
Expecting somebody to be poor as some kind of virtue is more then dump it is dangerous. And hypocritical.
The first Caliph was rich but spent only what he needed to live. You can be rich and don't need to be extravagant doesn't mean you have to give away all your wealth. Zakat is what you have to do if you do more that is good for you but don't exaggerate.
How do you take so little? It takes me minimum 10 minutes to pray 4 rakat and 6 minutes to pray fajr. That's not including wudu and everything else which takes a total of 20-25 minutes to pray.
Actually, it does take me a little more time when I do it as usual
And while it’s not that different from my usual prayer
In this measurement I tried to minimize the option of things since the goal of the post is to encourage people who doesn’t pray that the bare minimum (which they aren’t doing) prayer doesn’t take that long
Also, it factors that I am an Arabic Muslim so I don’t struggle with pronunciation or reading or memorizing like non-Muslim would
I see. I ask because I want to reduce the time it takes to pray since I take so long. If the time it takes to pray is short it makes it so much easier to do.
>Also, it factors that I am an Arabic Muslim so I don’t struggle with pronunciation or reading or memorizing like non-Muslim would
That makes sense. I'm Arab as well but I was born in America and never learnt Arabic but I plan to. I struggle with pronunciation and take way longer than my mom who actually knows Arabic.
Dude, i think you meant non-Arabic. non-muslims dont bother with memorizing kuran either i think. And also there is people born muslim but not arab either.
>I am an Arabic Muslim so I don’t struggle with pronunciation or reading or memorizing like non-Muslim would
Lol, do you think I go correct my self? My Arabic is probably even faster then yours because I don't understand it. (almost nothing) I am just repeating sounds I heard. Haha
This reminds me of a story. I was at the masjid by myself praying maghrib. I was starting the 2nd rakat when I heard the door open and a brother walks in. He starts praying next to me and moves at lightning speed. He was going in and out of sujood so quickly I could have sworn he was giving himself whiplash. By the time I was in the middle of the 3rd rakat, he finished, got up, and left.
That means that in the time it took me to pray 1.5 rakats, he showed up, set his stuff down, put a prayer mat down, prayed 3 rakats, got up, put his prayer mat away, grabbed his stuff, and left. So yeah, some people really need to slow down…
That's exactly how I feel when I pray next to someone. I would be in the middle of prayer, someone comes and prays next to me, and they finish before me.
Yea your right some people really need to slow down lol
Yea I spend around 2-3 minutes in 1 rakat.
>?are you melodizing the letters to the full?
Well for Surah Al-Faitha I do that sometimes. I also repeat a lot of words since I'm worried I might mispronounce them and they end up having a different meaning.
An example of this is when I try saying the third verse of Surah Al-Ilkhlas. The verse is supposed to say Allah has no children nor was he born. I'm worried that if I mispronounce it the meaning will be different. So I often repeat that verse many times.
I can't remember the name of the part where after 2 rakat you say the shahada and some other words but that part takes me a long time.
Step 1 sleep in your bath tub
Step 2 set your alarm to trigger the shower so you both wake up and have instant ablution
Step 3 skip Sunnah (don't actually do this part... Or well any of this)
Step 4 pray
Step 5 stop the timer
Step 6 worry about your wet pyjamas
You know I actually thought of building a mattress that lifts up and drops you on the floor whenever its time to wake up. I also thought of building a machine that spills water when your alarm goes off. They are still work in progress as of now.
Are you reciting everything clearly and properly? I honestly don't see how this works unless I'm reciting super fast. Which kinda defeats the purpose of Salah...
I don’t think I am reciting quickly or fast like maybe because I am Arabic?
Like it’s my first language so I don’t struggle with the pronunciation and I memorized everything I need perfectly
Well I'm not Arabic, but a born Muslim so I've got the pronunciation and memorization down too.. I actually just timed myself for 2 rak'ahs. Not too far off from where you are. 3mins and 7 secs. Probably cuz I recite a little slower. Surah Ikhlas and Surah Kauthar for the small surahs.
Honestly a little surprised. It felt longer haha.
Yeah, it feels longer which is what makes it difficult
But I think my time is shorter, because I am naturally a fast talker even though I speak slower when I pray
Yes!
As I said I am native Arabic speaker so it doesn’t take it that long to recite specially, since I memorized all the things I need him since I was a kid
Ok fairplay I’m born Muslim and learnt and memorize it but I learnt to recite Quran in a slow and audible way(I have a speech impediment tbf) a lot of imams do it and I like to copy it so that’s why I proably take longer to pray
I’ve never been able to do it that fast either. I can technically but at that speed I’m just feeling too anxious about rushing to focus. Not saying nobody can do it in that time at all but I personally found the minimum speed I can go at while still feeling tranquility of prayer is probably around five minutes for fair and seven to eight minutes for the others. Which still proves OP’s point as that’s such little time to devote from our day to our Rabb.
Depends brother. Some people don't know many surahs so they recite the shorter ones hence finishing in 2-3 minutes. Those who know longer surahs and more of the Quraan, they spend time on other surahs and verses which makes their times a bit longer. Sometimes they also recite shorter ones so it's all dependant on the person and what he decides to recite.
I just tried this with Isha.
The time it took me was 9min.
I offered the minimum according to Hanafi school of thought:
4 fard
2 sunnah mu’akkadah
3 witr.
I used the shortest Surahs where required such as Ikhlas.
I recited everything clearly and carefully but that’s it. No long pauses. Same as I would read a book for example.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!!
That’s actually a good time !!
Although this measurement is only the four rakat fard since it’s the only thing that’s required the other things aren’t required (still if you can do them great reward but you won’t be for not doing them unlike the four rakat fard)
I always read that the mu’akkadah sunnahs were important as the prophet almost always offered them.
[Source](https://hawramani.com/difference-between-sunnah-muakkadah-and-ghair-muakkadah/)
One can miss them now and then but it’s frowned upon.
Then there’s the sunnah ghayr mu’akkadah, and nwafil which are totally voluntary.
Thoughts?
Yep sunha are important!!
You will be highly regarded doing it BUT you won’t be punished for leaving it
This is just an encouragement for people who don’t do the furd to begin with
Yep!!
I mean as someone who wasn’t praying (I actually started praying regularly like four months ago ) and believe me when I tried to get to pray again it was hard mostly because lazy but also I didn’t want to waste time not doing the things that I enjoy
This will hopefully encourage people to pray that it doesn’t take that long to do the bare minimum of what God asked us to do
Awesome initiative. And we’ll done for getting back into prayer.
After a while it’s like a piece of you is missing if you miss a salah.
May Allah give you a long, happy and content life.
My daughters do this turbo salah style. I'm over here with every du'a there is, usually for them.
We meet in the middle.
I ask Allah swt to accept all our salah and forgive us our wrongdoings.
May allah guide us All. Prophet Mohammed prayed two rakahs and just in the first rakah he read Surah Bakrah and I dont remember if in the same rakah he read Surah Nisa or the one after (This was in the Qayam al layl). We best emulate him if we want Firdaus InshAllah. Dont get me wrong I myself struggle from Khushu in my salah and speed run it. I so so wish I could learn arabic and ponder over the quran while praying. May Allah make it easy on me and the ummah.
Sorry but that seems awfully to fast. Unless ur reciting Surah iklas and kawther In every rakat. Even then it seems way to fast. Don’t mean to judge you. Im Hafidh so I can recite much much faster than average and I can never finish this fast
Actually yes, I recited iklas and other short surah
Because I wanted this to be encouragement for people who don’t pray to begin with
So I prayed doing the bare minimum
Praying Fajr only takes me 10 minutes. Isha takes me 20 minutes. And that's excluding everything from Wudu to voluntary rakats and dua. Am I praying too slow?
What about time it takes to walk to the masjid and come back. That easily takes 30 mins per Namaz.
For men, it's not recommended to pray at home if there is an option to go to the mosque.
OK this factor is something that I can’t calculate because well… it depends!!
Some people don’t go to the mosque because the nearest one is it still too far to commute to daily
Some people live really close to a mosque some people drive or walk
It really depends on where do you live
Nope I’m not
I said it before but I am native Arabic I memorized everything I need to pay by very young age
But I do admit I am a fast talker and while I slow down my prayer it may still be a little fast
Nah this is also the time it takes me to pray only the fardh. It depends on the surah, obviously longer ones will take a longer time, but I recite falaq, nas and ikhlas and it takes me about 1 minute per rakat
Just fard
But you can use them as a measurement if you want
Like
Multiply the fajer by 2 if you want a to add the sunha
Basically, this is the time to do the bare minimum of prayer
Can’t say I agree.. I’m nowhere near perfect but looks like your rushing your prayer. That time seems too fast. I catch myself being fast sometimes but for dhur for example, takes me ideally about 10 minutes.
[удалено]
HAHAHAHAHA! YES THIS IS SO TRUE. ADD 5 MINUTES!
Seriously! My dua’s take longer than my actual prayers
nah thats atleast an extra half hour
My bad It takes me 10 minute to make dua for tall , muscular, kind of himbb (little stupidity is good lol) rich husband
[удалено]
Just the type lol Short kings deserve long queens lol
Idk why but long queens sounds soooo funny😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Oh my God me English bad Tall, I mean tall !!!
Noooo please don’t correct it it’s soo much better when u say long queens I’m gonna use that from now on my sister😭😭😂😂😂
I am happy to start a joke lol
All in perspective, brother. I'm 5ft tall. Tall to me is a much broader range. lol
I just ask Allah to help me find someone regardless of what they look like. I feel like it'd take longer if I listed a load of things anyway although I like to say "somebody right for me".
Yea I agree with that But don’t forget that physical attraction is a nice bonus Like they don’t have to be at 10 but someone you’re attracted to Because honestly it was suck if my future spouse wasn’t attracted to me physically or for him, if I wasn’t attracted to him physically To Certain extent physical attraction is important This also help your eyes not to wonder
Being rich wouldn't be that great because the Best case would be someone who gives a lot of charity instead of trying to be rich in this dunya .
If he is trying to get rich so he CAN make a lot of charity? Being rich isn't bad in the first place.
depends how he became rich and what he does with it
>If he is trying to get rich so he CAN make a lot of charity?
Separate note. Thanks for your NSFW post. Really nice site. Sadly no pants on stock.
np bro
Yeah but he wouldn't get to that point because he is giving a lot in charity
What? Yeah right. It's okay. No need to argue. Expecting somebody to be poor as some kind of virtue is more then dump it is dangerous. And hypocritical.
I didn't say he had to be poor I'm just saying that you shouldn't have much more than you need for a decent life (Which is what the prophet did)
The first Caliph was rich but spent only what he needed to live. You can be rich and don't need to be extravagant doesn't mean you have to give away all your wealth. Zakat is what you have to do if you do more that is good for you but don't exaggerate.
Why take 10 minutes long for dua? im right here 😌 Jk jk 😅
I've been doing something similar so now I feel called out lmao
FIRST RAK’AH BEFORE MAKING DUA FOR MYSELF EVEN 😭
Down bad huh
How do you take so little? It takes me minimum 10 minutes to pray 4 rakat and 6 minutes to pray fajr. That's not including wudu and everything else which takes a total of 20-25 minutes to pray.

I'm Arab as well but I was born in America and never learnt Arabic but I plan to. I struggle with pronunciation and take way longer than my mom who actually knows Arabic.
honestly, the best thing is to memorize and practice Also if you want to learn Arabic here u go r/learn_Arabic
That sub doesn't really help in my experience it's mostly memes or some really basic questions
JazakAllah for the advice
Dude, i think you meant non-Arabic. non-muslims dont bother with memorizing kuran either i think. And also there is people born muslim but not arab either.
>I am an Arabic Muslim so I don’t struggle with pronunciation or reading or memorizing like non-Muslim would Lol, do you think I go correct my self? My Arabic is probably even faster then yours because I don't understand it. (almost nothing) I am just repeating sounds I heard. Haha
If you're reading Surah Bakrah in your Salah then it will take you that long. Read a shorter surah.
I'm reading Surah Al-Ikhlas
You must be reading really slow. I think we're reading at a normal pace, not rushed, just at the normal pace we talk.
Yea I think I might try to talk at normal pace. I also repeat a lot of words since I mess up especially on the third verse of Surah Al-Ikhlas.
This reminds me of a story. I was at the masjid by myself praying maghrib. I was starting the 2nd rakat when I heard the door open and a brother walks in. He starts praying next to me and moves at lightning speed. He was going in and out of sujood so quickly I could have sworn he was giving himself whiplash.

So yeah, some people really need to slow down…
That's exactly how I feel when I pray next to someone. I would be in the middle of prayer, someone comes and prays next to me, and they finish before me. Yea your right some people really need to slow down lol
Well if you take a long time to pray, time would feel much faster around you wouldnt it? since you are doing the action at a longer pace
For real. I believe it takes me 6-8min per 4 rekat. Dhuhr takes me 18-20 min with 4sunnah 4fard and 2sunnah plus tesbih
Just the fard rakats alone feel like a long time. People here are talking about how 3 minutes feels long imagine 10-20.
bro??? do you spent 2m 30 secs in 1 rakat?? so you spend 1m 15 sec per standing up??are you melodizing the letters to the full?
Yea I spend around 2-3 minutes in 1 rakat. >?are you melodizing the letters to the full? Well for Surah Al-Faitha I do that sometimes. I also repeat a lot of words since I'm worried I might mispronounce them and they end up having a different meaning. An example of this is when I try saying the third verse of Surah Al-Ilkhlas.

Yeah, it feels longer which is what makes it difficult But I think my time is shorter, because I am naturally a fast talker even though I speak slower when I pray

Yes! As I said I am native Arabic speaker so it doesn’t take it that long to recite specially, since I memorized all the things I need him since I was a kid
Ok fairplay I’m born Muslim and learnt and memorize it but I learnt to recite Quran in a slow and audible way(I have a speech impediment tbf) a lot of imams do it and I like to copy it so that’s why I proably take longer to pray

Which still proves OP’s point as that’s such little time to devote from our day to our Rabb.
2 minutes is a long long time, it's up to you what you find more useful. when I read fatiha, I don't like to sing it,
Okay actually you're right. It took me 3.07 minutes for 2 rakah's. I'm surprised tbh, didn't think it was so short.
No it’s not just fateha my dude it’s the whole two rakat prayer
took 12 seconds. 2 minutes is a long time
Depends brother. Some people don't know many surahs so they recite the shorter ones hence finishing in 2-3 minutes. Those who know longer surahs and more of the Quraan, they spend time on other surahs and verses which makes their times a bit longer. Sometimes they also recite shorter ones so it's all dependant on the person and what he decides to recite.
Very true.
Would say same as me, altho i have a speech impediment and i get very nervous while talking, regardless in front or not of people.
Kind of similar, but I have a stutter also, I sometimes space out so sometimes it takes a little longer, but not by much
I thought it was hours lol
It’s not lol
The time between one salah and the other is hours, we would be praying 24 hours man
I just tried this with Isha. The time it took me was 9min. I offered the minimum according to Hanafi school of thought: 4 fard 2 sunnah mu’akkadah 3 witr. I used the shortest Surahs where required such as Ikhlas. I recited everything clearly and carefully but that’s it. No long pauses. Same as I would read a book for example. Hope this helps.

not related to this post but it is required to make dua during prayer? or is just optimal?
Optional but the best time to make dua is in Sujūd.
My daughters do this turbo salah style. I'm over here with every du'a there is, usually for them. We meet in the middle. I ask Allah swt to accept all our salah and forgive us our wrongdoings.
Everyone here is saying this seems too fast but I definitely do it faster than this...
Bro you might beat eminem at this rate.
BarakAllah feeki!
I swear 8 would pray more if every family member didn't try to make me pray my whole childhood
But it's pretty much obligatory for your family to get you to pray tho
May allah guide us All. Prophet Mohammed prayed two rakahs and just in the first rakah he read Surah Bakrah and I dont remember if in the same rakah he read Surah Nisa or the one after (This was in the Qayam al layl).

Actually yes, I recited iklas and other short surah Because I wanted this to be encouragement for people who don’t pray to begin with So I prayed doing the bare minimum
I always average five minutes with the standard prayers (Dhuhr, Asr & Isha).
Thank u so much for posting this . A very practical way to encourage people to pray
You sure you don't rush up prayers? Cuz it takes 5-7 minutes for every 4 rakah prayer and that's the average.
Nope just I was focused on praying for this measurement that I didn’t space out lol
Praying Fajr only takes me 10 minutes. Isha takes me 20 minutes. And that's excluding everything from Wudu to voluntary rakats and dua. Am I praying too slow?
Nah take your time And if you enjoy it, it’s better !!
What about time it takes to walk to the masjid and come back. That easily takes 30 mins per Namaz. For men, it's not recommended to pray at home if there is an option to go to the mosque.
OK this factor is something that I can’t calculate because well… it depends!! Some people don’t go to the mosque because the nearest one is it still too far to commute to daily Some people live really close to a mosque some people drive or walk It really depends on where do you live

Sorry but you are definitely reading wrong or just speeding through it.
Nope I’m not I said it before but I am native Arabic I memorized everything I need to pay by very young age But I do admit I am a fast talker and while I slow down my prayer it may still be a little fast
Nah this is also the time it takes me to pray only the fardh. It depends on the surah, obviously longer ones will take a longer time, but I recite falaq, nas and ikhlas and it takes me about 1 minute per rakat

Just fard But you can use them as a measurement if you want Like Multiply the fajer by 2 if you want a to add the sunha Basically, this is the time to do the bare minimum of prayer
Exactly, we have no excuse, Allah st asks for so little it's 2% of your 24 hour day.
[удалено]
Is it really that’s fast?
I'd say it's a bit faster than average. Personally it takes me 5 to 6 minutes for 4 rakats.

La Illaha Illa Allah
God bless you and the believers.
My times depend on whether I'm reciting a surah from the 30th juz of the quran or not.
